nope that's fine, just means I havnt got to rush out to my lfs to get some ro water but will sort the di stage out as soon as possible, cheers for the help

ok that's good just salt it is, is 3 TDS coming out going to cause to much concern or should I not use this water untill I get the di part?

just starting to make my own ro-water and I have a couple of questions, firstly, my TDS meter is saying 132 ppm in and 3 ppm out, is this good or bad? and secondly, what minerals do the lfs add to the water when they ask? I've got a salt water set up thanks

get rid of your aptasia now or there spread and besides its easier just to do a couple at a time as there always popping up, still real nice tank though

I have one too, have had for a year now and havnt seen any disadvantages, my water is a lot clearer though

yeah sorry about the picture quality it's an iPhone, I think it could be a mushroom, I did add some a few months back but never see them thought they died off straight away

noticed this in my tank today, not sure what it is, any help would be great many thanks for the help

unless you remove everything you won't get all the crushed coral out, just remove as much as you can, that's what I done and mine looks 100% better, just make sure you clean the sand before putting it in otherwise your gonna have cloudy water for a while

just go on to YouTube thers loads of videos on there showing you how to do it, it's realy not that difficult

you should try Lynchford aquatics in north camp it's a lot better than the Farnham branch of maidenhead

thanks I love it

looks prety good but I'm after the skimmer only as will eventually upgrade with a sump under the tank but that won't be for a couple of years atleast

tanks a 30g, I'll have a look at the 1 you've mentioned but any others that anyone's had experience with will be good to hear about

thanks sorry about the pictures, iPhone camera not great, they are metallic emerald zoa, red oriental fire zoa and a silver pulsing Xenia

hi, I'm after a new protein skimmer but not sure what to go with, it needs to be hang on the back as I'm not running a sump, if anyone can give me some advice it would be great thanx

I'd go bigger more flow has got to be better considering most people recommend 30 times that of your tank 600 gph just won't cut it

try and teach them to feed in the day, they come out to feed

Sounds good, I was thinking of doing my own led's looking forward to seeing it

Liking this thread everything is looking good i'll be following intently

Found the sticky it's great if you were looking for what I was I'll be getting an RO unit very soon

I understand theese factors, the cost of RO water from my lfs is £4 for 25 litres which is just over $6 for 11 gallons, as for re-using my washing machine is mains water fed and I don't have a garden, I guess it's all down to how much it will cost to make 25 litres, thanks for the advice...

I'm thinking of getting an RO unit but not sure if it's going to be just as cheap to keep buying water from my lfs, I live in the uk and am on a water meter, I keep reading that there is a lot of waste from RO units so I can't see how this is likely to work out cheaper, if any one in the uk are...

Where is this store? I'm in the uk and I'd love to check it out

The tanks 400mm deep I am going to keep corals but probably only soft corals, for the foreseeable future any way
